Please help!!
I’m so confused

A and C

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance between P and Q is 14.

With the first one the absolute value is of -8 is 8 and 8+5 is 14 so that's right.

The third one subtracting a negative is like adding a positive. So it would be 5+8 which is also 14.

The other to equal 3 and -3 which is wrong.

y -5 = (-1/4)(x + 8)

step-by-step explanation:

5=812a+9+3

step 1: simplify both sides of the equation.

5=812a+9+3

5=(812a)+(9+3)(combine like terms)

5=812a+12

5=812a+12

step 2: flip the equation.

812a+12=5

step 3: subtract 12 from both sides.

812a+12−12=5−12

812a=−7

step 4: divide both sides by 812.

812a /812 = -7/812

a= -1/116

so the answer is

a=   -1/116
